Offcuts and Offcut Offcuts

 The plank used to make the lazy Susan was 40mm thick and was split in two to make the 20mm platter.  After resawing, jointing, thicknessing and sanding the other 'half' was 10mm thick - just right for the back of a cookbook stand for the kitchen.


The base and shelf came from another piece of the recycled Jarrah I've used previously.  The back was made from grain matches pieces of the 10mm Rimu board, with a gentle curve across the top.  The pieces were screwed together to allow for some wood movement.


The whole thing got a couple of coats of Danish oil and some beeswax.


The leftovers from the back of the coobook stand were then used to make some coasters.


All and all, a well used plank of wood!
